Chapter 409

   What happened in the Manga Department of the Undead River, Kato Yusuke is unknown.

   However, he still took the time to go out the door, bought a copy of "Youth Undead", went home and casually looked at it, and then put it aside.

   turned to pick up the fourth volume of "Metronome in Love" that I bought the day before yesterday, and continued to read the place I read yesterday.

  The battle for the first heroine in the book has completely heated up.

   Up to now, even Kato Yusuke, a nominal consultant, cannot predict the final result, and Shi Yu has not told him, or even Shi Yu himself has not thought about it.

  An Yi Lun, who has read the fourth volume five times since he started, really wanted to exchange his feelings with him, and he also launched a series of bombings on him.

The    methods include LINE, email, and phone calls, and the degree of perseverance is close to harassment.

   Kato Yusuke finally blocked him directly.

In the middle of   , there was a call from Megumi. The other party said that he would come to his side in the afternoon because he had some questions about his studies and wanted to ask him.

   As for why you should be at home instead of the library outside.

   When he asked such a question, the girl also responded naturally.

  -"I think Yusuke is more used to staying at home now than outside, right? I'm just used to it, and I'll bring the ingredients to cook at that time. It's a thank you for helping me with my homework."

  So Kato Yusuke didn't say any more, and ended the call after saying goodbye.

  Inexplicably, the people around him seemed to take him as the kind of squatting at home.

   But if he only talks about himself, he rarely goes out except when he needs to.

   As a result, it will cause misunderstandings by the people around you, and it is not so difficult to understand.

   At noon, we settled for lunch at a Chinese restaurant a few blocks away from home, and ordered Mapo tofu and fried rice.

  The owner is a couple from Sichuan. They came to Japan for development ten years ago and settled down after that. The first-hand Mapo tofu is very authentic.

   If it is according to the saying in the Chinese small master.

   Ma, spicy, hot, fragrant, crisp, tender, fresh, live.

  —This eight-character motto of Mapo tofu is almost reflected in the taste.

   Kato Yusuke ate well and thought he could come back a few times in the future, but then he was discouraged by the overcrowded situation in the store.

   Back home.

   Taking the time to feed the cat and eat canned food, I took a look at the system store of the month.

  [Commodities: dried fish (10), wind chimes (10), USB flash drive (100), tracker (1000), beauty cream (1500), scarf of Dongyun family (3000), blood medicine (30000)]

   (Description: A new purchasable item is added every month.)

  【The scarf of the Dongyun family: The scarf researched by Dr. Dongyun of the Dongyun Research Institute, the animals who wear it can establish communication with humans. 】

   A new product that is a bit interesting at first glance, but terrifying after careful consideration.

   Kato Yusuke glanced at the black cat at his feet and thought about the scene where it spoke. He didn't want to make everyday life bizarre, so he didn't plan to change it.

   Next is skills.

  [Skills: Entry-level hypnosis (100), proficient chess and card (1000), proficient camping (10000), master painting (100000)]

   This time, there is no prompt to exchange for 20% off advanced skills.

   Without hesitation, he directly exchanged for master-level painting, and master-level camping that he felt might be useful.

   "Ding, deduct 10,000 points, and the host will get proficient camping."

   "Ding, after deducting 100,000 points, the host will get a master painting."

   A mysterious and mysterious feeling came to my mind, and there seemed to be something more in my mind, but it was untouchable, like an untouchable data stream.

   With the successful exchange of skills, his personal panel has also changed.

  【Character: Kato Yusuke (intruder of time and space)】

After    exchanged the skills, Kato Yusuke exited the system panel.

  …

   At about three o'clock in the afternoon, the doorbell rang with a "ding dong".

  —click.

   Kato Yusuke got up and walked to the entrance, and the apartment door opened on its own.

   "Ah~ good afternoon, Yusuke."

   Megumi greeted me with a supermarket shopping bag in her hand, put the spare key back into the rucksack on her shoulder, and walked in naturally.

   Today's girl is wearing a white cotton skirt with a Japanese-style dark blue cardigan on the outside, which is a style that looks simple and attractive.

   has a sense of intimacy of the girl next door.

   "Good afternoon." Kato Yusuke nodded in greeting, stretched out a hand, "Give me something."

   "Hmm~ Then please take it to the kitchen." With that, Megumi gently lifted the plastic bag in his hand and handed it to him, ready to change his shoes.

   "How much did you buy today? I'll bring it to you."

   "Ah, I'm here to ask you for help today, so it doesn't matter."

  “…”

   Kato Yusuke opened the plastic bag in his hand, looked down at the ingredients inside, took out his wallet after an estimate, found two thousand-yen bills and handed them over.

   "Thank you, but I'm still working."

   "Hmm~ that's it..."

   Seeing his insistence, Megumi, who had just taken off her casual shoes, just thought about it, and simply agreed.

   "Well, then I see, thank you."

"Won't."

  The two walked into the living room one after the other.

  “Meow~~”

   The black cat raised his head and yelped. He was no longer alert to Megumi, as if to say hello.

   Seeing this, Megumin squatted down slightly, and tentatively put a hand in front of its face and spread it upwards.

   "Good afternoon, little black~"

"Meow meow."

   The black cat lowered his head and sniffed her hand, then stuck out his tongue and lightly licked it twice as a friendly gesture.

   And Megumi also showed a smile and scratched her chin twice with her fingers like Yusuke usually did.

   One person and one cat formally established diplomatic relations.

   Kato Yusuke carried the bag to the kitchen, put the plastic bag on the counter, and asked, "Oolong tea and coffee, what would you like to drink?"

   At this moment, Megumi suddenly noticed the change in the room.

   "...Hey~~ So Yusuke, did you buy a coffee machine and a cat climbing frame?"

"no."

   Kato Yusuke shook his head and said, "These are gifts from Shiyu-senpai."

"Gift?"

   "Well, congratulations on the serialization of the manga."

   "...? That, in other words, Yusuke, has your manga been serialized?"

   "Yes, the magazine is on the bedside table, you can read it if you are interested."

   "Hey, that's how it is..."

  Mei responded without emotion, picked up the magazine from the bedside table, leaned against the bed and flipped through it.

   There is no need to remind which one, because Yusuke usually didn't hide it from her when she drew the manuscript, so she quickly found the corresponding page number according to the catalogue and read it.

   The girl is light and light, and when she sits down, she will lean her knees slightly together. The two calves exposed from under the white skirt are as white as milk, and she wears white lace socks on her feet.

   exudes a kind of Wenxiu temperament of Wanqiu Shuyuan.

   Kato Yusuke asked again, "What would you like to drink? Megumi."

The    girl hummed: "Then I want black... ah, I'm sorry, it's better to have coffee."

"understood."

  While Megumi was reading manga magazines, he started to prepare.

   Take whole milk out of the refrigerator and three hundred-yen store-bought mugs from the upper cabinet.

  Because of the promotion, he bought a set of such cups, that is, 6 pieces. The price is equivalent to buy 4 get 2 free, which is very cost-effective.

   In the past two days, Kato Yusuke basically brews a cup of coffee every morning and is familiar with the use of the machine.

   Grinding beans, pressing powder, and extracting.

   One cup is full, and one cup is only about a quarter full.

   Then pour the milk into the empty glass, turn on the steam switch and put some cold water.

  呲呲—

  With the sound of steam, the airflow began to spray from the steam head next to the machine.

  Wait until the temperature gets hot, turn off the switch, put the cup with milk under the steam head, and then turn the switch on again to whisk.

  The milk is slowly heated under the action of the steam, and the steam is turned off until the surface becomes creamy and silky.

   Kato Yusuke slowly poured the whipped whole milk into Megumi's cup, letting the coffee and milk in it gradually blend together, and a cup of milk coffee is ready.

   "Your coffee."

   "Hmm~ thank you."

   He put the other party's cup of coffee on the low table, went back to the kitchen to clean up and finish the work, and then took his own cup of black coffee to the desk and sat down on the swivel chair.

  Mei had just finished reading the manga at this time. She held up the coffee cup with both hands, brought it to her mouth, and blew lightly on the light brown coffee before taking a sip.

   "Ah, this is delicious~ Yusuke." She licked off the milk stains from her mouth, and her tone became light.

   Kato Yusuke nodded, replied that the beans from Shiyu-senpai were better, and then asked, "What's wrong with your homework?"

   "Well, it's a question on science, I'll take it out now." Megumin put down the cup and said, and turned around to take out the exercise book and stationery from the rucksack next to her legs.

  Although there is a three-day vacation after the end of the sports meeting, the mid-term exam in the middle of this month is also like a sword of Damox hanging over the head, which makes it impossible to relax completely.

   The two sat around the low table and began to study.

   checked the title, it is a big question in chemistry, the kind of essay title, there is no calculation.

   "Lend me the mechanical pencil." Kato Yusuke stretched out his hand, and Megumi put her pen in his hand.

   "Hmm~ here it is."

   Kato Yusuke took a pen and drew on a blank piece of scratch paper while explaining at the same time.

   "Adenine (A), Guanine (G), Cytosine (C), Thymine (T) and Uracil (U), these are the five base structures, do you know this part?"

   "Well, I know." Hui nodded lightly, took a mechanical pencil again, pressed the back against his lips, and watched him draw the five basic structures.

   "Then according to the question on the picture, the answer here is Cytosine, cytosine."

   "...Well, can you explain more specifically?" The girl frowned slightly, as if she didn't understand.

   "Is there something I don't understand?"

   "...Well, if I'm going to say, how do I deduce cytosine here?"

   "Is that so."

   Kato Yusuke understood and began to explain in more detail...

  The two were studying hard, while the black cat was sleeping in the cloth pocket on the cat's climbing frame.

  Time passes safely in the dwindling coffee…

   After an hour, all the learning questions were answered.

   It's four o'clock.

   As said on the phone, Megumi put away her books and exercise book, put on her apron, and ran to the kitchen to cook.

   Kato Yusuke is continuing to draw the new manuscript of "Chainsaw Man".

  Mei didn't ask him to help, and prepared dinner for tonight without any hassle.

  I started to stew the rice. Considering that some people might have breakfast the next morning, I added two more bowls.

   Then start preparing tonight's main course - tomato braised beef brisket.

  Boil the water in a pot, put the washed tomatoes into the boiling water and blanch for a while, remove them, turn off the heat, and peel the tomatoes.

   The black cat who was full of sleep came to her feet, patted her feet with his front paws, raised his head and let out a "meow", and licked his mouth twice.

   Upon seeing this scene, Megumin blinked slightly, took out a bamboo wheel from the refrigerator, put it in a paper bowl, and put it on the ground for it to eat.

   And then continue to be busy.

  Crush the peeled tomatoes, put them into a cooking pot and stir fry for a while, then turn to low heat and simmer slowly.

  Cut the washed beef brisket into pieces, put it into another pot with cold water, add a few slices of **** to remove the fishy smell, wait for the water to boil and skim off the blood, turn off the heat, and remove the beef brisket for later use.

   Clean the pots that are not in use in an orderly manner.

  Mei reached out and lifted the lid of the pot where the tomatoes were simmering.

  —Goooooooooooooooooooooooo.

  The rich tomato flavor and the white heat overflowed immediately, and the sweet and sour fragrance spread throughout the room.

   The girl nodded when she saw this, poured all the beef brisket into it, and added a little water, so that the water surface just covered the beef brisket.

  While humming a song, stir with a small wooden spatula, so that each piece of brisket is coated with tomato, then cover the pot again and continue to simmer on low heat.

  This process takes about an hour.

   Kei looked back at the living room, thought for a while, and then took out a bottle of iced oolong tea from the refrigerator, unscrewed the lid and poured it into a glass.

   I can't say why, but I always feel that my strength is a little stronger than before, and some things that require physical strength are now easier to do.

  Place two glasses with oolong tea on the tray, then take the tray to the desk and place one of them on the table.

   "I put the drink here, Yusuke."

   "Well, thank you." Yusuke Kato stopped writing and thanked him, took a sip from the cup, and resumed his work. His angular profile had a sense of concentration.

   After staring at him for a while, Kei Cai came to the low table, put the tray on the table, and sat down on the carpet.

   She looked around, then reached out and took the book, the fourth volume of "Metronome in Love" from the bedside table, and turned to ask.

   "What about that, Yusuke, can I read this novel by Kasumigaoka-senpai?"

"Can."

   "Hmm~ thank you."

   So Megumi turned his face back, first wrote down the number of pages he had seen, and then started to read it again.

   "Meow~"

   The black cat who finished eating Chikuwa came over, jumped from the ground onto her lap, found a comfortable spot and started licking her fur.

   Face it with this move.

   Megumi, who was sitting with her knees bent, stretched her legs forward and lowered it so that she could lie down more comfortably, and then continued to read the novel.
